I wanted Yau to win but he should not have put Dreamz in that sort of position to either keep your word and lose a chance for a million dollars or to go against your word and have a shot at a million dollars. However, after making such a deal, he should have assured Dreamz that if he gives him the idol, he would not vote him out and instead vote out Cassandra.

Its part of the game. Yau gave Dreamz the car. He didn't have to. Dreamz didn't have to accept the car. But he did. But when Dreamz reneged on his word, he screwed himself. He could have gotten votes (and possibly won) if he at least admitted to his wronging of Yau.
 
ppl like dreamz is whats wrong with this world, "playing the game" or not.

honor and integrity before money.

Yau-man deserved to win. point blank he was totally owned.

earl was cool tho, although allowing a tie competition would've been better, but he played smart

The fact that Casandra and Dreamz never got a vote speaks volume about what the jury tought of them. Dreamz was a scumbag. He would heve never won no mater who he competed with at the final 3.

Earl gets applauded for going on his word and voting off Yau, Dreamz does the same and is flamed.

At least hypocracy is universal.

How? Dreamz kept going on and on bout showing his kid to do the right thing. Earl was just like yea lets stick together to the end.

I was disappointed in seeing the best looking player (Jessica) be the first player to be voted out.

IIRC, Jessica as going to leave but her team convinced her to stick around and promised her they'd vote her out (which they did). They didn't want her to just quit.
 
Here is something about Survivor I have not quite understood. Here we are in what? Over ten seasons?

Yet, people still apply to be on the show and yet expect not to be any lying, cheating or backstabbing. I'm sure by now, a large majority of the American public knows about the "Survivor" series and what goes on and how the "game" is played. You would be a fool to apply and go into the game thinking that everyone is going to play an honest game.
But, then these people get on the jury and get their chance to ridicule the remaining contestants and seem to be all pissed off, etc.. etc..

Well .. DUH... you didn't ****** know how the Survivor game is played? Don't be so damn foolish..

 
One thing that is heart-warming for me is how asian men are being well received by the show's fans. Yau was the fan favorite this year -- people were amazed at how well he did in the challenges and admired his intelligence. Last year, Yul was extremely popular and was voted "One of the sexiest men" in People magazine.

We asian men are awesome!

I don't remember her wanting to quit. I remmber that she was voted out because she was a girl and the guys thought she was the weakest member of the team (she didn't do so well at the one challenge she had). I was thinking, "Nooooooo! Don't vote her out! She's the only eye-candy on the show" -- although later on I did think Michelle was cute and sweet.

Dreamz is so full of sh*t. He said he had all this planned from the moment he accepted the car from Yau-Man. Then why the hesitation in response to Jeff Probst's question at Tribal Council. Were his tears all fake? He could have just said screw you Yau-Man and avoided all the drama.

But when you think about it, Earl should have voted Cassandra and let Yau-Man and Cassandra fight for a spot in the top 3. I mean, if Dreamz had kept his word, Yau-Man would have been it anyways (which I assume is what Earl was agreeing to with the Dreams-Yau-Man deal).

there is no guarantee that a tie breaker would be limited to just the two people with votes, it could have been the old "all three of you pull a rock out of the bag, whoever gets the purple rock is out" deal

i think yao and earl should have made a deal with dreamz where all three vote off casandra and dreamz keeps his word and gives immunity to yao and the three men go to the jury. it would have been a better deal for yao of course, so earl probably thought of that and felt his chances were better the way it happened. of course earl claimed he was "stunned" when dreamz broke his deal

<shrugs>

glad they are changing things up and going to china, looks like it won't be on the ocean next time, back to a fresh water lake, maybe it will get colder
 
Survivor China looks like it could be interesting. I am so sick of the island paradise locations. What ever happened to places like Africa? I would love to see a Survivor Antarctica.

I think they should pick an island off the coast of British Columbia or Alaska.

Survivor Iraq, the islamic edition, would be prety interesting. Outwit, outblow, outpray!

All the women would be in burqas and the men would have to wear turbans.
Instead of a truck, you would win an APC.
No jews allowed.

Survivor: Souf Central? You get a bus pass and your choice of red or blue buff? Tribal council is a bit more permanent, there is no jury.
